Scripture Blog

This weblog is my personal online scripture journal. I try to read the scriptures each morning as I exercise on my cross-trainer. It has a great impact on my life and my testimony of the Savior and his restored church. The journal is really for my own benefit but I have set it up as a web log in hopes to benefit anyone else that may be interested. "For he that diligently seeketh shall find; and the mysteries of God shall be unfolded unto them, by the power of the Holy Ghost..." 1 Nephi 10:19

D&C 31

As the Lord calls Thomas B. Marsh to serve a mission, He says something that I feel is significant -

"Therefore, thrust in your sickle with all your soul, and your sins are forgiven you, and you shall be laden with sheaves upon your back, for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Wherefore, your family shall live."  (Doctrine and Covenants 31:5)

It is those words "wherefore, your family shall live", suggests to me that if we choose to serve the Lord according to His will, great promises are extended to our own families for on many occasions, the Lord says -

"...what I say unto one I say unto all..."  (Doctrine and Covenants 61:18)
